Get guidance you can trust in NFPA 70B,
Recommended Practice for Electrical Equipment Maintenance.

NFPA 70B details
preventive maintenance for electrical, electronic, and communication
systems and equipment -- such as those
used in industrial plants, institutional and commercial buildings,
and large multi-family residential complexes.

Used alongside the requirements in
NFPA 70E®, Standard for Electrical Safety
in the Workplace® NFPA 70B helps facility managers develop and carry
out an effective Electrical Preventive Maintenance (EPM) program for
all types of equipment and assemblies. Contractors look to NFPA 70B
for information about properly servicing equipment, and designers
depend on it for developing specifications for installation that
take maintenance into account.

Updates in NFPA 70B
coordinate with NFPA 70E and the "dot" standards from the Institute
of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

New recommendations for performing a
maintenance-related design study correlate with the latest
edition of NFPA 70E.

New references help you identify content
covered in approximately 70 IEEE "dot" standards in the IEEE
3000 Standards Collection™, replacing references to the IEEE
Color Books.

NFPA 70B chapters
address every aspect of equipment maintenance:

Planning and developing an Electrical
Preventive Maintenance (EPM) program

Personnel safety

Fundamentals of electrical equipment
maintenance

System studies
